What’s your Why?

What’s your Why?

This year has been quite a wild ride so far. How are you doing?

This year has been challenging for everyone, in different ways. It’s a time of growth and to come together. I believe that the hard times teach us strength, resilience, and compassion. When we go through hard times, we come out stronger and more connected on the other side.

Think of a challenging time that you shared with someone. You probably have a bond with them forever. That is what I believe is happening right now. We are sharing the struggle, the pain, and the uncertainty of these crazy times.

The best way that I cope with uncertainty and anxiety is through exercise. I have a Peloton bike, and it has become a haven for me to exercise at home. My favorite instructor, Robin Arzon, said the other day, “Purpose in life is Oxygen.”

Let that sink in.

During life-changing times, we make important decisions. We decide to stop tolerating things that don’t serve us. If you are making changes in your life, ask yourself, what is your purpose? What’s your why?

Why do you get up and do what you do every day?

Is it serving you? Or do you want more?

My why is You. You are my oxygen. I want you to have it all in life. The good, the bad, the struggles, the beauty, the strength and resilience, the time with your family, the wealth, ALL OF IT! Watching you face your fears, crush your goals, and succeed in ways you never dreamed…that is why I get up every day.

Thank you for sharing these times with me.

On the other side of this, we will be stronger. We will realize our resiliency, and many of us will make changes. These times are teaching us what is important in life. Maybe you are seeking more control over your career, more time with your family, more flexibility in your schedule…

As you reevaluate, find your purpose, your oxygen. That is where life begins.
